Farlow was seen leaving an off licence just before getting into her car.

She was arrested shortly after the crash and breathalysed at the scene.

It returned a reading of 0.303, which is six times over the legal limit, according to police reports.

Farlow has been charged with drink driving, causing bodily harm by misconduct and driving while using a phone.

Police said seven vehicles in total were involved in the incident.

A spokesperson said: "The offending driver in this instance was heavily impaired with alcohol. The driver was six times over the legal limit.

"It could have been a catastrophe incident involving the young lady and could have involved others.

"With that level of impairment how do you get behind the wheel of a motor vehicle and attempt to drive, let alone walk? Seven vehicles in all were involved in the collision and it could have been a hell of a lot worse."
